### Gauge Object

The Gauge object inserts a gauge object into your form, label template, or custom report. This object is not valid in the Report Template Editor.

Default Gauge Object

If the object's width is larger than the height, the percentile bar moves horizontally.

If the object's height is larger than the width, the percentile bar moves vertically.

Along with the ability to resize the object, change colors, and change other attributes, you can cause the object's percentile bar to move by using these properties in conjunction with PC-DMIS commands or Visual BASIC code:

ValueEq
Value equation.

This is the current value of the gauge object. Once it is evaluated against the minimum and maximum ranges set in MinimumEQ and MaximumEQ, it displays a percentage number on the gauge.

It can be a set constant number, a value evaluated from a simple equation, or a value returned from a VBScript.

-$, $, CONST

MinimumEq
Minimum equation.

This defines what the 0% value is. If a value of 5 represents 0 percent on the gauge, you would set this property to 5.

This value can be a set constant number, a value evaluated from a simple equation, or a value returned from a VBScript.

-$, $, CONST

MaximumEq
Maximum equation.

This defines what the 100% value is. If a value of 10 represents 100 percent, you would set this property to 10.

This value can be a set constant number, a value evaluated from a simple equation, or a value returned from a VBScript.

-$, $, CONST

ShowText
This shows or hides the percentage number in the gauge.
